Not to brag, but I already knew that multiplication was commutative.
That's not even mildly interesting.

Well it was a response to the previous post. And if responses are required to be at least mildly interesting then I’m afraid we are both self defeating.

You may be familiar with the concept of pianos used as weapons—it happened frequently in cartoons—but did you know that Steinway & Sons, the makers of pianos since 1853, had a military contract to build pianos during World War II? And that these pianos, packed tightly in specially designed crates, were often parachuted into war zones?

Ha. Around 1980 I remember a professor having me sit down with her secretary to learn to use a word processor. I’d never used anything like this before. No backspacing with correction tape. Words were justified. But it seemed slow in contrast to typing on an IBM Selectric and even the little electric typewriter I used at home. Faster than a manual though .. oh my!
I wonder how many kids today know what “cc” stands for, or have seen carbon paper?
